[SunRescue] My response to Sun's letter (and phone call)

[C KLEIN]

As you say bill, with the new colour scheme no one in their right mind will 
think the site has anything to do with Sun. Can Sun claim rights over a colour?
Would it be better to continue to have the page as was, but with an entry page 
that has to be seen first, i.e. there is no way to skip it whenever loading 
sunhelp.org, which quite clearly states that this site is nothing to with sun, 
and if the person was looking for sun then it would have a link to them. Then if 
the person wants to see the site then they will know exactly what it is about. 
Sun mught possibly then agree that they are getting fair represenation from your 
web resource. Someone in a previous post mentioned the Logo. 
Can Sun have the same amount of power if the site was held on a non US server 
(if it is, I dont know?)
